The smart/wealthy are also powerful and rogue agents will definitely use AI to do things. AI that wealth can't necessarily control will definitely exist and that is probably system changing. I doubt it will be a threat to humanity anytime soon like a Grey Goo type situation, but even in such things at HFT the influence is immense. People will definitely use it to do power plays on others, we shouldn't have dropped nukes but we have done plenty of that. Basically the warning in 2001 was that AI was not to fear really but the subversive programming by other humans within the AI systems. I am sure over time AI systems that access critical infrastructure and financial systems will have to operate in a distributed approval/review system checked by other agents and maybe even a blockchain like system.
